How it all started…

When I set out to look for a childcare center for my two young boys, I was disappointed because there wasn’t a center that had everything I was looking for. Some centers were great but either they weren’t affordable or the educational aspect was missing. I decided that I wanted it all for not only my children, but my friends and family too.

Then Magical Minds Childcare and Learning Center was born.

Our Mission

We provide childcare that offers educational programs for children ages 6 weeks to 6 years old while providing an encouraging, safe, educational environment allowing for growth physically, emotionally, intellectually and socially.

Toddler Programs

We embrace and nurture your child’s growing sense of self exploration, excitement, independence, and intellectual milestones.

FROGSTREET CURRICULUM

Designed around the latest scientific early brain development research, this year-round program focuses on enhancing the simple joy of childhood while equipping caregivers to nurture curiosity through exploration. Frog Street Toddler, created by Dr. Pam Schiller, incorporates Dr. Becky Bailey’s Conscious Discipline® and includes 52 weeks of activity choices specifically created for children ages 18-36 months.

 
 

Preschool Program

Our highly trained teachers provide an environment that establishes strong kindergarten-readiness skills, supports friendships, and prepares your child to leave for elementary school with confidence and excitement.

Scholastic Big Day for PreK Curriculum

The Scholastic Big Day for PreK Curriculum at Magical Minds Childcare and Learning Center was designed by early education specialists and follows the guidelines for developmentally appropriate practice set forth by national accrediting associations and Common Core Standards for Kindergarten. This educational child care program helps children develop the critical thinking and problem-solving skills they'll need to succeed in kindergarten, school and life.
